An acrylic monomer which is an amino sugar alcohol whose primary or secondary amino group has been derivatized by an acryloyl or a methacryloyl function. The amino group can be linked to any carbon of five or six-carbon sugar alcohols. The acrylic monomer has the formula: <IMAGE> where R1 is H, CH2OH or (CHOH)mCH2OH, m being 1 or 2; R2 is monohydroxyalkyl, polyhydroxyalkyl or hydrocarbon radical; R3 is H or CH3; and n is an integer of 1-4 The acrylic monomer can be polymerized by a free radical polymerization, either alone or with other compounds and materials having polymerizable double bonds. The so formed polymers are linear or branched (cross-linked). The cross-linked polymers are usually in the form of gels. The gels can be polymerized in different forms and shapes, i.e., beads, thin sheets, rods, blocks, etc. and are useful as separation media, e.g., the transparent gels are useful as an anticonvective matrix in electrophoresis, whereas the opaque gels prepared in a bead form are useful in chromatography.
